[#EyesOnArtist] MISO (미소)

Kim Miso was born on May 31, 1992 in South Korea. She has a younger brother. When she was 3 her family moved to the UK and after 10 years she came back to her homeland. She naturally started to be interested in music thanks to her parents, who were listening to jazz and classical music. She learned how to play on flute, cello and piano. When she was young her favourite artists were, among others: Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Janet Jackson. After coming back to Korea she started to take interest in korean hip hop and R’n’B stage, and her idols became Fana, The Quiett, Eternal Morning and Verbal Jint. Miso started composing her first songs at age 19. She was introduced to Millic and joined Club Eskimo, group which unites musicians and producers. At the same time she got a proposition from an agency, but she refused, because she wanted to see how far she can go working by herself. In 2015 she attended The Red Bull Music Academy, where she broadened her knowledge about music. That was a new experience for her, as she worked with different people from different countries, and not alone. She also owns two adorable dogs, Choco and Pinky, as well as two guinea-pigs, Tony and Suhri.

Recently she took part in Club Eskimo’s Tour in USA, where she was a DJ and mixed not only her own songs, but also other artists songs from the team. 

Miso wants to create music which is unique and she’s not restricted by any genre. Singer, producer and DJ - look out for her, as we will for sure hear more about her!
